Enjoy yourself then. I only raid from that area and I head East not West.

Yeah and majority of PvP down there against GB is maybe one or two players at Belize or countering any raiders that come down to the US ports. Most of the PvP against GB in that area is Espana and France. We US keep to ourselves down there for the most part.

Timers are set like they are suppose to be for US players. In our timezones. Do not see US clans complaining about EU clans setting proper timers in EU timezones. The ports are set to a time when majority of the North American player base is active. Were not CBC in France setting silly port battle windows where it is difficult for both NA and EU players to do hostility. France is not much US issue in Belize as they sink more GB players. So they are your problem like we tried to warn you they were a bad idea inviting them to such an area. I guess the money was too good though. GB also provoked because of Gregory targeting our ports in the shallows. America doesnt have much and will protect what little it has. I would threaten US should just rampage down the Central American coast but you would not care. In fact I was encouraged screwing over clans like BAIT and BCC in deals. ONION remains rogue and will remain so helping any nation or player it pleases.

You guys at that point of when everything happened were not allies. You were on neutral friendly terms. The EU French broke any alliance with Espana when they were caught on US East Coast during port battles, which they stated they had no part or desire for, all while requesting Espana for help against at that time Sweden and Russia stating they need Espana help since the EU French were not able to field enough ships. There was probably more to Espana pulling the alliance with France of course but from what I was told talking to a few of them that was the final straw.

What? Raxius is French and Rediii is going to Russia.

Why doesnt Sweden go after them rather than wait for Espana or France to make another move?

France will win unless Espana decides to finally make a move against them. France started the war. They were told what their actions would incur if they went ahead with them at Ruatan and they went ahead anyways. Espana not backing down from their word kept it. I don't care who wins. France though will need to be put in their place as well at some point just like Sweden was and now Espana is. Espana deserved this war. Any nation that controls as many ports as they do and are not able to support them should be at a war to balance out the server ever slightly. France should be next with the amount of ports they have.

I do miss a good war that is back and fourth struggle. Current state of the game shows that will not happen.

So people mocked and got mad about the Espana and US alliance. Espana did nothing with it even when US was in desperate need of help. They finally do something about it and people get mad still. Still good to see a war happen between two large port owning nations.

Overall these past few months GB timers are what I would call reasonable. Set for EU players and particular clans that hold those said ports. CBC is one that I find questionable PB timing now. If you cant afford to put a timer on an important port then that is the clans fault. You are not protecting your interest. US has placed a timer on all the ports it holds interest in currently. It is the first line of defense.

There is never enough. You could potentially do something similar to what Team Fortress 2 does where the community can create and upload items to steam workshop and you the developers can decided if it should be added or not to the game. Takes some of the work off you.

Too odd really. Probably should be looked into.

I will surrender when I just know there is no chance and I have better things to be doing like clan stuff or sleep for example.

It is so beautiful for three reasons. One I am loving the design of it. Not seeing a giant clutter of menus. Two, the mission types and rewards. Maybe now I wont be as broke or going through cash so quickly. Three, seeing something about the patch and ui is just great to see period. Please continue keeping the forums updated on your progress more frequently though and keep up the good work.

Obviously your head is still stuck on the requin even though I was joking about him sinking it and I did mention that it had nothing in particular to concern the requin.

Well sink it for starters lol. Nothing to do in particular concerning a requin as an opponent but more dealing with the limitations of the build he was using and other factors some not concerning the battle to be exact either.

Thank you for your honesty. Yes I was not able to visually see the full conversation and asked him personally if you were verbally mocking or insulting him like I have witnessed some veterans do mainly because when I started to talk to him about it he seemed down trotted. He stated it felt you were attempting to start a verbal argument with him. Granted he was already flustered and without hearing a persons tone context can be misinterpruted. I will talk to him this evening about it. Thank you again.

I think it was good experience for him and hopefully he was able to learn something from this. Yes U.S. is down there. Calling it hiding is a bit silly though I think since our flag is right on the damn map saying "US HERE." The build he was in was definitely not meant for solo battles and definitely not against ships faster and more nimble than itself unless with support. Hopefully he understands this. I haven't heard from him since I finally decided to sit my ass down and watch Equalizer. It was okay. Felt a bit rushed at points and a few other parts that were unneeded. Anyways. Will talk to him tomorrow and see what he has learned. I do agree that the requin is quite powerful. It is very hard to hit since it is the most elusive ship to get a great broadside upon, especially in an experienced players hands such as yourself. Even if you do get a broadside to broadside shot on a requin you have to hope that you can even hit its very low profile without majority of your shots going into the water. It is a ship who speed, quick turning, and low profile make it such a difficult ship to face. This is not even taking into consideration the common boarding build it has which can take on any fifth and most 4th rates with little effort. Also no need to kick a player who has been only playing for around a month down. The guy fought you and loss. He is bummed enough about that. No need to try to attempt draw a verbal fight with the man and troll. Leave that to the forums. I do appreciate though you did not call him any names. With that you have my gratitude. Happy Hunting.

So basically I got bored last night created this childish monstrosity and kept pushing back watching the Equalizer for some reason. Maybe because I am not the biggest Denzel Washington fan. Not a bad actor but now seems stuck in the same character in all his movies. Anyways. On August 3rd the clan Onion Knights declared our autonomy from the United States political system. We found it to be at times at odds with what the clan wanted a bit too often and was not fond of being part of the "cabinet" as "Director of CIA." Whatever that title means. Onion Knight therefore has decided for full autonomy rather than the partial we were working with the last month. We attempted but was not to our liking. The Onion Knights will now be the masters of their own fate and decisions not letting other clans dictate the path they must choose. We do not take orders from the cabinet, partake in the senate, or march along with the same beat as the other clans. This does not mean we will not work with the other clans of the United States but does not guarantee complete cooperation with the other clans on every decision either. Onion Knights will help out anyone that asks, inside or outside the nation. As long as we see some sort of benefit towards the clan or if we are in a jolly mood. Who knows.

Rather make it harder for them alts and flippers that @EliteDelta is suggesting than do nothing. Clans do need more control like @Teutonic suggests but I still have some national elements still available.

Past names should be shown. No one should be able to hide from their past accomplishes and/or mistakes. Cant in real life and should not be able to in a game. It also has been somewhat abused and used for negative means that has not helped the progress of the community and the game itself.

The complaints about the grind I chuckle at. They don't know how bad the grind was before. There needs to be however another means to earn experience that creates interest and breaks down the mundain consecutive actions the game currently is to rank up.

Let others step up and fill J's role. Veterans leave new players fill their shoes all the time. We must accept that these veterans are likely not coming back, push forward comrades.

Love the Herc. Very agile ship that has become the first rate of the shallows. That is the issue however. Not much in the shallows can match it 1v1. The Nassau Patrol before its inteoduction was lively. Now it is quiet in relation. It is a ship that needs not a nerf but some moderate tweaks to create an enviromental balance with its natural habitat in the shallows.
